Chapter 278: Too Hard

Qian Ansheng didn't expect Wan Quji to agree so happily, he took the contract signed by Wan Quji, and he was in a good mood, the 40,000 taels were in hand, it was absolutely beautiful, but he always felt strange in his heart, it seemed that something was wrong.

The butler suddenly ran in from outside and said, "Master, someone outside wants to see you and talk to you about a business." ”

Qian Ansheng said: "This automatic door-to-door business, it is better to be cautious, there is no good thing in the sky." ”

The housekeeper said, "It's a girl's house, and she also said that she knows that there are many distinguished guests in our Taishou Mansion." ”

Qian Ansheng's hand paused, and he suddenly sneered, and said: "It turns out that they are all in a group, it doesn't matter, one more is the one, let her in." ”

Shen Yanshu wore a black cloak and walked into the Taishou Mansion under the guidance of the housekeeper.

Taishou Mansion looks simple, except for some simple flowers and plants, there is no extra decoration, Shen Yanshu looked at it, although it was really poor, but it was good to take care of.

Qian Ansheng asked the housekeeper to take Shen Yanshu to the side hall, but avoided King Ling and Sun Ji.

Shen Yanshu stepped forward and saw the man sitting on the main seat looking at herself, she put down the cloak on her head, stepped forward and gave a junior salute, and said, "Qian Taishou." ”

Qian Ansheng looked at Shen Yanshu's appearance, and he was not a simple character at first glance.

He said straight to the point: "What is this girl called?"

"Princess Ling, Shen Yanshu. Shen Yanshu didn't hide it.

Qian Ansheng was stunned for a moment, and was about to salute when he got up, but was helped up by Shen Yanshu, and he said: "The princess is coming, it should be to inform the prince." ”

"Don't get in the way, I'm here for you. Shen Yanshu chuckled.

Qian Ansheng looked at her puzzled and asked, "The princess said that you want to talk to me about a business." ”

"Help us and kill Wan Quji and Sun Ji. Shen Yanshu got straight to the point.

Qian Ansheng also guessed that she was here for this matter, but he had already negotiated with Wan Qujian and them, so he had to pretend to drag it and asked, "What price does the princess plan to offer?"

Shen Yanshu said: "I think Qian Taishou and Commander Wan have almost talked about it, and this price must not be low." ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Qian Ansheng's eyes, and he looked at Shen Yanshu's gaze without perfunctory.

Shen Yanshu took out a jade pendant from his sleeve, handed it to Qian Taishou, and said, "The jade pendant I brought with me is not worth anything, I don't know if I can let Taishou be accommodating." ”

Seeing the jade pendant, Qian Taishou looked at Shen Yanshu in shock.

His original bland expression became serious, and he asked, "Where did you get this jade pendant?"

Shen Yanshu looked at the jade pendant in his hand, chuckled, and said, "Uncle Huo Zhen really didn't lie to me, this jade pendant is still somewhat useful." ”

Hearing Huo Shu's name, Qian Taishou narrowed his eyes slightly.

When Huo Shu was released from prison, he had someone to pick him up and go to Chang'an to find him, but he disappeared after he was released from prison.

He thought that Huo Shu would die in the prison like this, but he didn't expect that he would hear his name one day.

Someone came to him with his jade pendant.

"Where is he now?" asked Qian Ansheng.

Shen Yanshu said: "Don't worry, he is doing well now, he has a wife and daughter, and now he has a competitive son-in-law, but you can't see him now, he is in Daqi." ”

"Daqi?" Qian Ansheng was a little surprised, he asked puzzledly, "His wife and daughter died in the fire, how can they still be alive?"

Shen Yanshu said: "This is a long story, if you don't help me now, you won't be able to hear about him." ”

Qian Taishou used to be Huo Shu's subordinate, and he was saved by Huo Shu several times, and all of them still have feelings for Huo Shu.

He looked at the jade pendant in Shen Yanshu's hand and asked, "Then you have to tell me what King Ling and Commander Wan are for." ”

Shen Yanshu knew that Qian Ansheng had always been cautious, and she came with Huo Sheng's jade pendant like this, although she could win a little trust from him, but she would not blindly help and put herself in an embarrassing situation, he had to need the truth to judge how to do it.

"When they come, you should see a woman. Shen Yanshu said, "She is Jiang Wu, the wife of the general of Zhenbei and the second daughter of the Marquis of Anding, and there should be a young man about seventeen years old by her side, which is the second son of Qi Yi, the general of Zhenbei, Qi Yunhao." ”

Qian Taishou inquired about them, but whether it was King Ling's people or the inner guards, they never mentioned the identity of the woman, he knew that there was something wrong with it, but he didn't expect her to be Mrs. Qi.

Qi Yi and Huo Shu have always had a good relationship, so Qian Ansheng is no stranger to him, and what happened to the Qi family later made him even more embarrassed.

Shen Yanshu continued: "If you can, please help them escape from the emperor's clutches. ”

Qian Ansheng was slightly stunned, and his expression was serious, which was far from what he was doing in ordinary days.

"Wan Qujian has a lot of means, and what he promised you may not be able to do, so even though he promised to give you money, it is not impossible to cross the river and tear down the bridge when the time comes. Shen Yanshu said lightly.

Qian Ansheng came back to his senses, and then remembered that he had just accepted their contract, and he took out the contract from his arms, tore it up, and threw it into the incense burner on the side.

"Girl, I lost 40,000 taels of silver for you. Qian Taishou said.

Shen Yanshu chuckled lightly and gave him another big gift: "Thank you, Uncle Qian!"

"Thank you for not needing, if you have spare money, share some with your uncle. Qian Ansheng said.

Seeing Qian Ansheng return to such a lion's mouth-opening appearance, Shen Yanshu laughed and said, "As for the money, it will be spent sooner or later, do I want to bring you a way to make money?"

Qian Ansheng raised his eyebrows, what other good way to make money in his poor country?

Shen Yanshu said unhurriedly: "I heard that my uncle often sets traps to earn money from passers-by, so I think I should be able to make some money, but when I came to this Taishou Mansion today, I was simply destitute, and this money was probably spent on the people, right?"

Her words made Qian Ansheng slightly stunned, and then laughed.

"You girl, your eyes are poisonous enough. He praised, then sighed, and said, "The imperial court has to pay taxes every year, and the emperor's big hand has made Lizhou and several wealthy counties around it pay the same amount of taxes, but the surrounding counties have excellent geographical locations, and there are still many surpluses every year after paying taxes, and the people of Lizhou are miserable, and Lao Tzu can only be cheeky to do the thing of collecting tolls." ”
